20191115: Shampeachment ~ Marie Yovanovich

What’s the over/under on Marie breaking out into tears during testimony? Marie thinks President Trump was mean to her, implies she “feels threatened”. Really, Marie?

From President Zelinsky to President Trump: “……It was great that you were the first one who told me that she was a bad Ambassador because I agree with you 100%. Her attitude towards me was far from the best as she admired the previous President and was on his side. She would not accept me as a new President well enough.“

Background: Yovanovitch was born in 1958, in Canada. Her parents were Russian emmigrees, moved to Connecticut at age 3. Parents were professors, taught Russian. She grew up speaking Russian. Naturalized American citizen at age 18. Graduated Kent School in ’76, went to Princeton, BA in History and Russian Studies, entered foreign service. Posts in Canada, Moscow, London, Mogadishu, and Kyrgyzstan. Deputy Chief of Mission in Kiev, Ukraine from August 2001 to June 2004 (right up to the Orange Revolution). Then appointed Ambassador to Kyrgyzstan, Ambassador to Armenia. Back to State Dept in 2011, helped get rid of missiles in Poland (bad idea-Obama gave it away and got nothing in return). Announced as Amb to Ukraine on May 18, 2016 (note date), approved August 29th of 2016, just in time for US election.

Used her office as Hillary Clinton headquarters, working with Glenn Simpson and Fusion GPS.

Yovanovich is also implicated in the Black Ledger docs which magically appeared (implied Manafort was receiving millions in cash payments) and were supplied to the prosecutors in Ukraine along with a simultaneous delivery to the New York Times.

May 2019, After Durham’s visit to Ukraine, Yovanovitch was fired and the evident outrage by the left was for good reason. This is where the Atlantic Council, AntAC, but more importantly Nellie Ohr and her mentor’s involvement in #crossfirehurricane, came to light.

Yovanovitch and Sergiy: As an Ambassador to the USA, worked with an MP in Parliament, Sergiy Leshchenko.

Leshchenko is a hard left fascist radical (used to be an investigative journalist) who leaked the Party of Regions docs on Manafort to the NYTimes. He was found GUILTY of the leak, convicted for meddling in a US Election of 2016. The conviction was overturned on “standing of suing party” and “statute of limitations” technicalies. No denying Sergiy did it – he’s proud of it. He doesn’t seem to understand he’s an MP now and not a rag reporter with journalist immunity to smear. Almost 100% consensus the documents were faked, provenance is sketchy, but the trick worked and Manafort was forced to resign the following day. https://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-news-and-politics/229471/ukrainian-mp-manafort-secrets

Yovanovitch and PRESIDENT Zelinsky: Zelinsky does not like Yovanovitch and implied she told him she preferred the previous President. I believe that’s from the phone call on July 25th – Again:

From President Zelinsky to President Trump: “……It was great that you were he first one who told me that she was a bad Ambassador because I agree with you 100%. Her attitude towards me was far from the best as she admired the previous President and was on his side. She would not accept me as a new President well enough.“

Yovanovitch and George Kent: In her testimony, Marie claims she never spoke to George about Burisma or Hunter Biden. Really? George Kent was her Deputy. George Kent complained about the appearance of conflict of interest for Hunter Biden, to the VP’s staff, directly…….. but he never spoke to Marie?

Yovanovitch and Giuliani: Judge for yourself.

Yovanovitch Surveillance of Americans:(Judicial Watch) Judicial Watch has obtained information indicating Yovanovitch may have violated laws and government regulations by ordering subordinates to target certain U.S. persons using State Department resources. Yovanovitch reportedly ordered monitoring keyed to the following search terms: Biden, Giuliani, Soros and Yovanovitch. Judicial Watch has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the State Department and will continue gathering facts from government sources.

Prior to being recalled as ambassador to Ukraine in the spring Yovanovitch reportedly created a list of individuals who were to be monitored via social media and other means. Ukraine embassy staff made the request to the Washington D.C. headquarters office of the department’s Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs. After several days, Yovanovitch’s staff was informed that the request was illegal and the monitoring either ceased or was concealed via the State Department Global Engagement Center, which has looser restrictions on collecting information.

“This is not an obscure rule, everyone in public diplomacy or public affairs knows they can’t make lists and monitor U.S. citizens unless there is a major national security reason,” according to a senior State Department official. If the illicit operation occurred, it seems to indicate a clear political bias against the president and his supporters.

Hidden in the new law – Section 1287 – are the funding and guidelines necessary to establish a Global Engagement Center. The wording is sufficiently vague enough for the GEC to become a Ministry of Truth.

Section 1287, (a) Establishment, (2) Purpose: The purpose of the Center shall be to lead, synchronize, and coordinate efforts of the Federal Government to recognize, understand, expose, and counter foreign state and non-state propaganda and disinformation efforts aimed at undermining United States national security interests.

From 2017

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 into law last Friday while Americans were busy making their last minute Christmas preparations. The vote in the Senate on December 8th was 85-13 where its sponsor was John McCain. Only two Republicans voted against the final version before it was sent to President Obama to sign. It had passed the House a week earlier by a vote of 375-34 with no more than 5 Republicans voting against it. Paul Ryan wasn’t one of them.

Hidden in the new law – Section 1287 – are the funding and guidelines necessary to establish a Global Engagement Center.

Yovanovitch will play the victim.

State Dept has rallied around her

“……“bribery” as defined under the constitution for impeachment speaks to the President receiving cash or value to take an action for the benefit of a foreign power. [Pelosi has the entire thing reversed]…” SD

Remember the TV commercials by the huckster promoting the magic cleanup cloth called SHAM WOW?
I think we can safely refer to this sham of an “inquiry” as a SHAM WOW….trying desperately to clean up the dirty deeds of the Obama Administrations.

Andy, I believe it is their way of getting into the official record the lies of the Dems – they’re using their time to make sure the PUBLIC knows what’s been hidden – as much as possible – without Schiff slapping an ethics violation on them. For ex. making sure everyone knows Schiffty won’t release some transcripts. Jordan names who and makes sure everyone knows.

They’re doing reporting during any opportunity to speak publicly. It’s their one chance.

Welch is comparing this chick to Gens. Kelly and Mattis, and NoName? Good Lord. Talk about pandering to the leftist women with no common sense. Their transgressions aside, this woman in not in Mattis and Kelly’s league.

As a former citizen of Ukraine I followed the news and clearly remember reports from Kiev in 2016-17 about how Marie Yovanovitch denigrated president Trump and undermined his agenda while in the official capacity of the US ambassador to Ukraine.

US Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch lobbied against the newly elected US president Trump on foreign soil, which is treason. Prior to that, during the election, she had successfully convinced the Ukrainian government that they should side with Hillary against Trump.

And yet, just now, as I tried to Google “Marie Yovanovitch denigrated and undermined Trump in Ukraine,” the only results were about how “Trump denigrated and undermined Marie Yovanovitch.” The media has now become 100% Orwellian, and so has Google.

Okay, I’m shallow….but, I know that if I were going to appear on international TV I absolutely, positively would never appear with frizzy hair. I would absolutely, positively have my hair styled for the occasion. (Hanging my head in shame for being so gosh darn shallow…sorry, just can’t help it🤭)

Notice how, so far, the Democrats have been peppering the witness with questions asking her to speculate—about the President's motives, reasons, decisions, etc. There's a reason why they're doing this.

RATCLIFFE: “Out of thousands of companies in the Ukraine, the only one that you recall the Obama/Biden State Department preparing you to answer questions about was the one where the Vice President's son was on the board. Is that fair?”

Ambassador Yovanovitch just testified she shared the sentiments of other State Dept officials that the Hunter Biden-Burisma relationship created the appearance of a conflict of interest for VP Joe Biden. That’s why I reported the column in the first place.

So unlike what happened to Ambassador Stevens in Benghazi (who she compares herself to) the Trump Admin actually helped them strengthen their position as opposed to leaving them to die?!? Ok, Got it. https://t.co/pLcw4E3AWN

So, exactly WHAT did Yovanoviychskayaovna mean with this “The Trump administration strengthened OUR policy…”?
Did she mean the State Department / Interagency types policy? So all of a sudden, it magically became OK for POTUS to send the Javelins to Ukraine?
Why can’t she say “strengthened U.S. policy”?
I say this woman was truly rattled today. “Somebody” coached her to go the Blasey-Ford route. Didn’t work.

Two days of hearings & NONE of the star "witnesses" actually witnessed anything.▶️ NONE talked with @realDonaldTrump▶️ NONE were on Presidents' calls▶️ NONE offered anything more than rumor, gossip and what other people told them.🛑the poll-tested #SchiffShow

HAPPENING NOW: @realDonaldTrump is taking historic action to make healthcare prices transparent for consumers, yet the coverage on all the cables remains on the impeachment inquiry charade. Dems should get back to work – just like our @potus is!!!

Yep. This thing is dragging out so long (I think intentionally by the DEMONicRATS, as they want to cut off funding to the military and the wall, along with sliming President Trump) that it reminds me of that Ketchup commercial (Hunts?) with that Carly Simon song behind it…. sort of like

shamticipation, shamticipation
Is makin’ me late
Is keepin’ me waitin’…

Daughn…… you.. are smarter than ALL of these idiots.
On Hannity tonight, Sean had the oh so brilliant Ken Starr on. Starr struck poked President Trump in the eye about his tweet looking like intimidating the witness. Is Starr struck really this STUPID? Ya-done-done-it bitch would not have known of the tweet if Schitt fer brains didn’t tell her about it! Damn these people are STUPID!

She looks nervous, inconvenienced at having to be there, and resentful that her partisanship is being exposed. We’ll be seeing a lot of this because they never thought Hillary would lose. And I think she knows her testimony is not helpful to the cause. She can blame her discomfort today on Schiff.

And maybe the Klintoons? Are she and the other “witnesses” worried about the possibility of an Arkancide in their future?

On the other hand, Vlad’s bar, grill, and rock-chopping spa awaits…
(Oh, the irony. Parents escape to Canada from Russia, then to the USA, then she is stripped of her US citizenship for sedition/treason, then returned to Russia for, erm, further processing)
(bigger pun in German, as Prozess means “trial” in German)…

Isn’t there a woman who does body language analysis? Would be interesting to see her take on this day’s “testimony”… She did a lot of stuff around the Kavanaugh hearings, and some of the Whittaker hearings…

She’s got Jim Jordan Vs Ambassador Taylor up, but “Natasha Badenov” isn’t there… at least yet. I’d also like to see an analysis of how folks reacted when Elise Stefanik grilled them… not just well done, but downright charred…

It seems like the Republicans (at least the MAGAs) are thinkers; the DEMONicRATS, on the other hand, are stinkers. Thinkers vs. Stinkers in a Kangaroo court… wish we could bill Schiff et. al. back for the wasted time… add a few miles to the wall….

Having been out of the house and watching this off and on and only again catching up is wondering if our reps have been able to convey the notion that Mrs Yavonvich was let go because she did not recognize her duty to look into spy gate and Biden corruption at the proper behest of the president but instead just acted like a normal resistor. considering such absurd, not worth serious consideration and thus became a toad in the road who needed to be squashed or removed?

Ackkk!.. That was the last. IMO more should of been pursuing Jordan’s line of thought in showing the president felt let down by his state dept not sharing his real concerns rather than that Yovanovitch didn’t have anything to add.
